Enhanced Sanding Mandrel by Shop Fox D2722 Review

Tool works as described. Despite its length, it's tough enough to sand the inside curves of hardwood. A 1" diameter will not tighten enough to hold the sanding drum securely in place. He goes up or down. It's easy to switch. Rubber bushing for a tighter grip on the drum. Despite the issue, I still think it's worth the price.

It was perfect. I was having trouble with my spindle sander and when I looked at the new "Die were so ridiculously expensive. That's when I thought about converting my drill press to my spindle sander, since I had both my old spindle sander and an oscillating sander on the opposite side of the case carriage. "not really ok. So I used this mandrel and parts of it and it turned out perfect after fitting some bearings and plugging the adapter into my drill table. In general everything is…

I took the mandrel out of the box. The nut was barely screwed onto the end of the mandrel. Tries to turn. It got stuck in less than one turn. Looked at the thread, looked at the mother. None of them have damaged threads. Looked like the right size. I started measuring. Of course, the mandrel has a metric thread (M8 x 1.25) and the nut is SAE (5/16 x 18). Go to the hardware store to buy the right size nut. Completely unprofessional by Shop Fox. Admit it, they knew the nut was the wrong size when
